The local kick off time for this Group A match between Norway and Iceland at Arena Thun in Switzerland is 9pm CET on 10^th July 2025  

This chart shows just one powerful testimony:  The placement of the Moon in the 1^st house, giving a boost to the fortunes of the favourites, Norway.   To make this more certain, the Moon could be closer to the house cusp but, in the absence of any more powerful testimonies, gives the advantage to Norway.

If the game started earlier, the Moon’s opposition to the part of Fortune would be equally helpful for the underdogs (Iceland).  However, by the time the game kicks off, this aspect will already be past.   

This match will give favourites Norway a chance to consolidate their place at the top of Group A and qualify for the next round.

At the time of writing, Germany are second favourites to be tournament victors:  Only defending champions Spain have better odds.  

In their debut match, Germany won convincingly against Poland (2-0), while Denmark conceded points to Sweden, losing 0-1 to a goal in the 55^th minute.  

This game against Germany will be Denmark’s toughest challenge in Group C, and they will need to do well to assure their place in the next round.   

The 1^st house and its ruler, Jupiter, represent favourites Germany:  At 06 Cancer 33, Jupiter is still afflicted by the Sun at 16 Cancer 44, by being ‘under the sunbeams’.  This debility is much weaker than affliction by combustion but is worthy of note.   

Mercury (ruler of the 7^th house) signify their opponents, Denmark.  

The ruler of the 10^th house would usually be co-significator for the favourites, just as the ruler of the 4^th house would co-signify the underdogs.  This chart is slightly unusual in that the ruler of the 10^th house (for Germany) is Mercury, the main significator for Denmark and the 4^th house ruler (for Denmark) is Jupiter, who is already spoken for as main significator for Germany: Jupiter’s and Mercury’s roles as rulers of the 1^st and 7^th house take precedence, so the teams have just one significator each.  

The Moon’s aspects decide more sporting contests than any other testimonies:  In this chart, she makes just one aspect of significance (over the usual 5-degree orb of reliability for 90-minute football matches), an opposition to the antiscion of Jupiter at 23 Gemini 27.  Despite the challenging nature of the opposition aspect, this boosts the fortunes of favourites, Germany.  It is a weaker than if the Moon made a bodily aspect to Jupiter, but in the absence of any stronger testimonies, is a sign that the game will go Germany’s way.

The local kick off time for the CONCACAF Gold Cup Final at NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas is 6pm (Local Time) on 6th July 2025.

Both the USA and Mexico have earned their place in the CONCACAF Gold Cup Final:  Mexico are favoured to win, but eight-times trophy victors USA will not make it easy for them.   

As favourites, Mexico are signified solely by Jupiter (lord of the 1^st house).  They would usually have the ruler of the 10^th house (Mercury) as their co-significator, but (as ruler of the 7^th house) he is busy representing their rivals, USA.   

There are no testimonies in this chart which point clearly to a winner.   

The Moon applies to sextile Saturn, who can prove a general hindrance to either (or both sides) if not occupied as a significator for one of the teams.  

The next lunar aspect is a sextile to Neptune, who can also be the author of mischief when so inclined.  

The Moon’s final aspect, (over the 5-degree reliable orb for 90-minute football match) is a sextile to Pluto.  John Frawley has observed that Pluto appears to have a grudge against the favourites, but that he is most effective when on a team house cusp, or aspecting the Part of Fortune, its antiscion or dispositor by conjunction or opposition. This is not the case here, but the aspect is worth noting in the absence of anything more convincing.  

Jupiter (lord 1) is no longer combust (within approx 8 degrees of the Sun) but is still close enough (within 15 degrees) to be ‘under the sun beams’. This could prove an obstacle to the favourites, Mexico. It is only a weak affiction, but in a chart with so few other testimonies, it may be more significant.   

Although this contest chart has little in the way of major testimonies, it does not mean the game will be dull:  Saturn and Neptune have it in their power to bring generalised mischief and upsets, while Pluto’s aspect to the Moon and Jupiter’s affliction by the Sun suggest that the favourites will not find victory easy.   

A long-drawn out contest, possibly going to extra time and/or penalties is very possible.

The local kick off time for the final Quarter Final of this tournament at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey is 4pm (ET) on 5th July 2025    

Real Madrid are five times Club World Cup champions, and have yet to lose a game this tournament.  They are the favourites, and are signified by Mars (lord of the 1^st house) and the Sun (lord of the 10^th house, the house of victory for the favourites).   

Dortmund, as their opponents, are represented by Venus (lord of the 7^th house) and Saturn (lord of the 4^th house).  Although they are the less favoured team (at least in the opinion of the bookmakers), they too have yet to lose a game this tournament and promise another closely fought match as they battle Real Madrid for a place in the Semi-Finals.   

Looking at the contest chart, the Moon makes all the running, pointing the way to the likely result with two powerful testimonies:  She applies to conjunct the 1^st house cusp and (being within 5-degrees of the house cusp) is counted as being placed within that house.  This is a strong argument for victory for the favourites.   

The Moon’s next and final aspect (over the 5-degree orb of reliability for 90-minute football matches) is a trine to the Part of Fortune, which also favours the favourites.   

The absence of any testimonies supporting Dortmund suggests that the team which holds the record as Club World Cup Champions (Real Madrid) will be going on to the next round.  

Dortmund may be underdogs, but they too have yet to lose a game this tournament. Even with the heavens in their favour, it would be a mistake for Real Madrid to assume their place in the Semi-Finals will be easily won.  Dortmund are sure to make them work for it.

The local kick off time for the first Quarter Final of this tournament in Orlando, Florida is 3pm (ET) on 4^th July 2025   

The Moon is in the 1^st house, very close to the house cusp. This gives a strong boost to the fortunes of the favourites.   

The Moon’s first aspect is a conjunction with the antiscion of the Part of Fortune (at 06 Scorpio 19).  Although a conjunction to an antiscion is not always as reliable as a bodily conjunction, this also points to a win for the favourites.  

The Moon’s final relevant aspect is a sextile to Mars, lord of the 1^st house:  Another powerful testimony for the favourites.   This aspect is just over the 5-degree orb of reliability for 90-minute football matches, so an opportunity in extra time may prove significant.   

We have a chart overwhelmingly in favour of a win for the favourites. However, it is less easy to decide who the favourites are.   

Both Fluminense and Al-Hilal have played outstandingly during this tournament:  Fluminense have a win against Inter Milan to their credit, while Al-Hilal can boast the biggest upset of the contest so far, having defeated Manchester City by four goals to three last Tuesday.   

At the time of writing (3^rd July 2025), most bookmakers favour Al-Hilal to win, but the margin is very narrow and Fluminense have strong support as well.   

One thing is certain: This contest between well-matched teams promises to be one of the most memorable of the tournament.

Forecasts for the FIFA Club World Cup will continue later in the week but, for now, over to the first day of the Women’s Euro 2025 where Switzerland do battle with Norway in their opening match of the tournament.  

Please note:  All contest charts are cast for BST, hence the different date and time from that locally advertised.       

The local kick off time for this match at St Jakob-Park in Basel is 9pm.

Although Switzerland have the home advantage, the pundits consider Norway to be the stronger side. 

As favourites, Norway are signified by Saturn (lord of the 1^st house).  Their co-significator, Mars, already has a role as dispositor of the Part of Fortune which takes precedence. 

The 7^th and 4^th house (and their rulers) represent Switzerland:  Here, the 7^th house is ruled by the Moon, who already has a role describing the events of the match.  The Moon’s dispositor is Venus, who also rules the 4^th house, making her the ideal significator for Switzerland.  

So, unusually, both teams have just one planet to represent them:  Saturn for Norway and Venus for Switzerland.   

The antiscion of Venus (at 02 Leo 03, for Switzerland) opposes a retrograde Pluto.  Pluto tends to reserve his malice for the favourites so, if Switzerland are truly the underdogs, they should have little to fear.

Saturn (for favourites Norway) applies to conjunct the Part of Fortune.  This powerful testimony would award victory to Norway, but Neptune intercedes between them, preventing the aspect: Norway may have victory in their grasp, but Neptune has it in his power to deny them the win, if the mood takes him.   

Overall, this is an interesting chart, in that both teams have difficult planets to contend with.  The favourites should have the edge, but if Neptune is in the mood for mischief, unexpected outcomes are possible.

The local kick off time for this Last-16 match in Charlotte, North Carolina, is 3pm (ET) on 30th June 2025.   

In the tournament’s first round, Inter Milan won one more game than their rivals.  The pundits favour them to win.  However, a draw between these well-matched teams cannot be ruled out:  Can the contest chart throw further light on the result?   

As favourites, Inter Milan are represented by Venus (lord of the 1^st house) and the Sun (ruler of the 10^th house, the house of victory for the favourites).   

The sole significator for rivals Fluminense is Mars (lord of the 7^th house).  Saturn, ruler of the 4^th house (the house of victory for the underdogs) is already spoken for as dispositor of the Part of Fortune.   

Inter Milan will play well:  The antiscion of Venus (at 04 Leo 14) is just inside the 10^th house, conjunct the cusp.  This testimony is not as reliable as if Venus were in the 10^th house by bodily placement, but may be sufficient to win them the match.   

The only lunar aspect within the standard 5-degree orb for 90-minute football matches is a square to the antiscion of the Sun (at 20 Gemini 46).  This is a weak testimony which favours Inter Milan. 

So we have two minor testimonies for the favourites, and little to support the underdogs:  This chart inclines towards a win for the favourites, Inter Milan.   

Note however that Saturn (dispositor of the Part of Fortune) applies to conjunct Neptune. If he is in the mood, Neptune can cause unexpected mischief:  His influence may have been felt in last Saturday’s match between Benfica and Chelsea, where disruption due to stormy weather meant the the game took almost five hours to complete. Inter Milan may find their path to victory less straightforward than they expect.

The local kick off time for this last-16 match at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida is 4pm (ET) on 29th June 2025.   

Bayern Munich are tipped for victory, but some pundits favour a draw: What do the heavens say?  

The Moon applies to a conjunction with Mars, which (as lord of the 1^st house) favours the favourites.  This is one of the strongest possible testimonies for victory for Bayern Munich.  

The Sun (lord of the 10^th house, the house of victory for the favourites) applies to an opposition with the Part of Fortune.  Although the orb of aspect is slightly over the ideal1-2 degrees, it is a powerful testimony for the underdogs, Flamengo. However, it is unlikely to be strong enough to counteract the more powerful conjunction of the Moon and Mars. 

Overall, this chart favours Bayern Munich.   

However, a draw may be within Flamengo’s reach, and the favourites should be on their guard against a strong challenge from their rivals, especially during the latter stages of the game.

The local kick off time for this last-16 match at Bank of America Stadium, Charlotte, North Carolina is 4pm (ET) on 28th June 2025.  

Despite an uneven performance against Flamengo last week, Chelsea are favourites to win against injury-hit Benfica, but the battle is expected to be close. 

As favourites, Chelsea are represented by Mars, (lord of the 1^st house) and the Sun (lord of the 10^th house).   

Benfica are signified by Venus (lord of the 7^th house) and Saturn (lord of the 4^th house). 

The Moon is in the 10^th house (for Chelsea), but placed too far from the 10^th house cusp to signify:  Ideally, she would need to be within 1-2 degrees of the Midheaven to indicate a win for the favourites.   

The Moon applies to trine the antiscion of Mars (lord 1) at 23 Aries 29.  Although it is not as powerful as a bodily aspect, this is nevertheless a strong testimony for favourites Chelsea.   

The only other aspect of note is an opposition between the antiscion of the Part of Fortune (at 07 Capricorn 36) and the Sun (lord of the 10^th house).  This favours the underdogs, Benfica.   

The pundits expect this match to be close, and the heavens agree:  With equally balanced testimonies (one for each team) a draw is very possible.  Either way, expect the teams to be evenly matched, with the result uncertain right up until the final minutes of the game.
